Racemic cis-9,10-epoxystearic acid was isolated from total lipids of human leukocytes. Identification of the epoxy acid was based mainly on gas liquid chromatographic-mass spectrometric analysis and on its chemical conversion into threo-9,10-dihydroxystearic acid. A mass spectrometric method for quantitative determination

A microsomal fraction from etiolated Vicia sativa seedlings incubated aerobically with [1-14C]oleic acid (Z9-octadecenoic acid) or [1-14C]9,10-epoxystearic acid or [1-14C]9,10-dihydroxystearic acid catalyzed the NADPH-dependent formation of hydroxylated metabolites. The chemical structure of compounds formed from oleic, 9,10-epoxystearic or 9,10-dihydroxystearic acids
